UT panelist: Blacks should keep eye on past struggles AUSTIN (AP) — Young blacks are making a big mistake by forget ting past civil rights struggles and are allowing advancements blacks have made to regress, the first black to enter the University of Kentucky said Thursday. Lyman T. Johnson, who entered Kentucky in 1949, compared the struggles of blacks to his attempts as a young man to move a horse-drawn flatbed truck up a hill. When he was ready to whip the horse, Johnson said his father told him to put rocks behind the wheels instead. “Tell young blacks they are goof ing when they don’t go look back over the hard struggles we have been under,” Johnson said. “And if they don’t go back and put a rock under the wheel, they will roll back down.” Johnson was part of a panel dis cussion at a two-day University of Texas symposium honoring Heman Sweatt. After a four-year lawsuit that went to the U.S. Supreme Court, Sweatt became the First black to en ter the University of Texas Law School. The symposium was the brains torm of a group of black UT stu dents who wanted to honor Sweatt, and it was aided by several school or ganizations, alumni and funding from school President William Cun ningham. Eddie Reeves, one of the symposi um’s organizers, said, “It’s important not to forget the civil rights mov- ment and what Heman Sweatt did, but also it’s also important to look at what the future holds for black peo ple in general,” Another speaker at the event was James Meredith, who was accompa nied by thousands of National Guard soldiers when he enrolled at the University of Mississippi. Meredith said today’s blacks need to do two things: “We got to get our family together . . . We got to get our political and economic house in or der.” If blacks become strong economi cally and politically, “nobody can stop us,” he said. Sweatt was kept from entering the UT Law School by officials who ar gued that a separate-but-equal school, Texas Southern University, was available for blacks. The Supreme Court case, Sweatt vs. Painter, proved the two facilities were not equal • Trouble Finding A Place To Park?
